Society for the Propagation of the Faith

Welcome to the Society for the Propagation of Faith!

The Society for the Propagation of the Faith is one of the four Pontifical Mission Societies. It is established in every country where the church is free to operate and seeks prayer, sacrifice, and financial support for mission dioceses around the world.

Encouraging the faithful to give first place to prayer and a spirit of sacrifice for the missions is the most important part of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. In the Archdiocese of Saint Louis, we do this in a variety of ways: Annuities, Daily Worldmissionnaires, Mass Stipends, Membership Program, Perpetual Memberships, Monthly Donors, Personal Donations, World Mission Sunday, Wills, Estates, and Trusts.

Offerings received by the Propagation of the Faith in the United States are joined with offerings from all other countries and are distributed annually to more than 1,100 mission dioceses and vicariates around the world!
